Branson, Missouri, USA, 2019-Nov-07 — /Travel PR News/ — Branson offers an astounding array of attractions to those who love to travel, play golf, and cherish the holiday season. Nowhere else in the world can you tee off on courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, Tom Fazio and Gary Player during the morning, then immerse yourself in the comprehensive spectacle that is Christmas in Branson afterward.
Christmas in Branson begins on November 1 and runs through December.
For more than a quarter century, Branson has made its holiday lineup of events a treasured tradition. Celebrations run from the beginning of November through New Year’s Day – there’s no waiting for Thanksgiving to kick-off the holidays in Branson, our charming middle America town in the southwest Missouri Ozarks.

Branson burst on the scene during the past few years as a must-visit golf destination. Several new courses opened here in the recent past, and there will be 10 when an 19-hole design by Tiger Woods called Payne’s Valley debuts in 2020. All are close to one another and diverse yet complementary. To understand the high quality of Branson’s golf venues, know that three of Missouri’s top 10 ranked courses are here, and it has designs by a cadre of esteemed designers, including Bob Cupp, Tom Clark, Chuck Smith, and Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw.
Designed by Gary Player, Mountain Top Golf Course exemplies the glorious golf setting that is the Branson Missouri Ozarks.
Christmas light displays can be found all throughout the Branson area. Driving tours such as Let There Be Lights!, Branson’s Lights of Joy and Trail of Lights are all great to explore. During the Christmas season, visitors can even experience light displays while walking down the Branson Landing. Silver Dollar City is home to the largest Christmas light display in this area during An Old Time Christmas. With Christmas in Midtown, you can find around 6.5 million lights across the park.
Branson is America’s Christmas Tree City. Follow the city tree trail for plenty of fun adventures and a unique Christmas light experience. Holiday shopping, Polar Express train rides, and many more attractions beckon.
Getting in the spirit of the season, LedgeStone Country Club – rated the No. 6 best public course in Missouri by Golfweek – allows you to “Play Golf and Santa” from Nov. 17-Dec. 23, Sundays-Thursdays. Golfers who bring a new unwrapped toy can play the award-winning course for $25, a savings of more 40% off the normal November-December playing rate.
